I have been looking in my 75 gallon tank each night with a flashlight and I have noticed lots of strange things come out at night. First of all I have been researching the threads enough to know that I have a couple of bristle worms. I also have these tiny worms with no bristles that extend downwards out of my lr and suck themselves back up in when the light is shined on them. I see lots of copeopods present and when I do a water change I have tiny white starfish looking guys that float around until the water calms. My question is are these lil starfish looking guys actually baby starfish and what in the world are the lil worms with no legs/bristles?

I am not sure why the "starfish" would be floating around?
Might be something else, if that is their behavior.
